The day had been long and had seen its fair share of competitive fights, but finally two teams remained. Chip and Dale were leaping up and down excitedly on the very table, albeit a minuscule one, to await the battle to come.

I'll spread my wingsand I'll learn how to flyI'll do what it takestill I touch the sky.

Everything had happened so quickly there at the end. Nil recalled calling down the meteor, but all that transpired afterwards was a blur. He could remember screams and cheers but the behemoth wasn't sure how to feel about that. It was a desperate last ditch effort play and a rather destructive one at that. After the end of the round and waking up in the infirmary, he was all but certain that they had lost...or worse, disqualified entirely after such a display. Coming down from that rush of battle left Nil filling up with worry and regret. If worse came to worst, maybe he could convince the judges to only disqualify him and let Beatrix have a better partner than him? Apparently however, the worst wasn't to come. After a once over and a twice over by the healers, Nil was cleared to leave the infirmary and informed that he and Beatrix had won their match. It took a few moments for the behemoth to process that fact. It meant they made it to the finals! He could hardly believe it!...Okay he could partially believe it, but wow!

Throwing his robe back on, Nil took a few calming breaths. There was more at stake now, plus he had no idea who their new opponents could be or what they were capable of! But they made it this far too, which mean that he couldn't begin to under estimate them. 'No more holding back...' he thought to himself before glancing over at some of the chunks of arena floor rubble that had been carried out after the last match...'Okay maybe a little holding back this time.'

Making his way into the arena, Nil would leave the obscuring hood of his robe up for a bit. His nerves were more calm than they had been before but now that he was on the arena floor again, they were starting to rise. Win, lose, it doesn't matter. It's about fun, as it should be. When his opponents and partner would finally arrive, the behemoth would finally pull his hood down with a smile, nodding over towards Beatrix before waving across the arena towards their fated foes. "Hey there! It's great to meet you two! Best of luck okay!"

Namine was truly shocked. The announcement of who won took longer then it normally did this time, but that isn't what shocked her. The results that her and Prompto were moving into the finals did. After every round this seemed to leave Namine speechless every times. She really didn't know what to say. So she didn't say anything at all. She kept to herself in silent contemplation. She had no doubt that Prompto on his own could make it this far. He had training, skills, and a weapon. She, however, well she could do a few magic tricks and head games. Somehow it was enough to get them this far and keep up with he partner. She was starting to think that maybe there was a bit more to her then meets the eye. After all, look at Sora. He doesn't seem like much on first appearance, but his heart and determination was greater then his looks let on. Goofy, was well.....Goofy, but even he had strengths that were more then what most would expect.

Namine was looking down at her folded hands against her lap. Someone calling her name made her head jolt up in their direction. She was so deep in thought that she was off in her own little world for a moment. It took a moment for her to process what the person was saying. It turned out that they had called her a few times. When she finally came back to reality she noticed that it was Clarabell Cow that was talking to her once again. She was letting her know once more that it was time for the final, and that she was to report to the arena.

The Memory witch gave a few slight nods before thanking the cow and standing up. Namine brushed the wrinkles out of her dress and gave it a few swipes and pats to get any dust off that settled on her. She fixed her hair so that the majority of the blonde locks were placed carefully over her one shoulder. She knew that they weren't going to stay that way for long. After she was satisfied with her appearance she walked out from were she was waiting.

Namine came up on the right side of her partner and gave him a soft smile and a nodded of reinsurance. She was ready to go and give it her all. Out of the two of them her name was called first. She took a deep breath and walked out into the arena. As she did so her left hand splayed out in front of her as if she was about to accept a gift from someone. With a shimmer of white a sketchbook materialized in her hand as she made her way to the arena stage. This was the first time that she summoned her book before getting in position.

As the Artist was just walking past the edge of the field her right hand hovered over her sketchbook and a colored pencil appeared between the fingers of her right hand. With one smooth motion Namine twirled the pencil between her fingers as she raised the object up towards her ear, and tucked away behind it.

Namine faced the hooded figure before her. She gave him a smile with a head tilt as she brought the sketchbook closer to her chest. Despite the Opponent's hood being up she could clear see what looked like horns running just inside the hood. This didn't deter or faze her in the slightest. Her express remand kind, yet still a bit curious.

"Nice to meet you too. Lets do our best." Namine said gently back after his greeting.

Once the battle began Namine snapped fingers. The echo seemed to becoming from all around the arena, but nothing seemed to happen.....or....did it?

Strange new worlds

and the war within them.

They had made it to the finals.

Beatrix still couldn't really believe it, as she strode out towards the ring. After everything, after all the battling and damage that had been dished out and taken, both she and Nil had made it to the last round of this strange but exciting tournament. Everything that had happened had taught her lessons; wisdom she had thought she wouldn't receive after all she had been through. On her world, she was regarded as the finest swordsman that existed. Out here, among the many worlds, she still had a lot to learn and a long way to go. The thrill of her possible growth had carried her through the tournament, through each and every bout. And she was a little proud of both herself and the Behemoth that they had managed to come to this conclusion.

She walked right up beside Nil, taking her place next to the partner that had held his own, despite his naivety to battling. As he dropped his hood to nod to her, she turned to face him completely. "Nil," she said, her words soft but sincere. "No matter the outcome of this match, I want you to know how proud of I am to have fought beside you. Despite your acknowledged innocence to fighting, you've shown great prowess and ability beyond many who've never tasted combat. And more than that, I can tell your heart is one of great size and capacity." She gave him a solid smile, one of the more feminine looks that she had allowed thus far during the tournament. "It would be my honor to work alongside you again in the future. Now, let us shake off these jitters and give our foes the respect of our full steel and strength," she finished with a firm nod. Then she turned to their opponents, regarding them with esteem and clarity. "I am General Beatrix of the Alexandrian Empire. I wish you the best of luck and may fortune guide you," she nodded to each of their foes in kind, showing them compassion that many wouldn't take for ones they were about to battle. But the minute the words had left the air, her eyes narrowed and her body went on guard. Her hand went to her sword handle, ready to pull it free at a moment's notice.

How had Prompto found himself here? It was just mere hours ago that he had signed up with Namine to participate in the Birthday cup. When he had first brought the offer to her attention, he had not expected to make it past the first round. He simply looked at it as a way to make new friends and to see just how far they had come, but now they were in the finals. THE FINALS!! Prompto knew that over the years he had gotten stronger because of the ten year darkness that took over EOS, but the people he faced here seemed so much more capable in battle then him. So how was he able to make it this far? Prompto knew it had a lot to do with Namine by his side and he always made a point to thank her every chance he could. After all of this was over he would definitely have to make it up to her. Maybe some of that sea salt ice cream people were talking about?

Once the last battle was over, Prompto was whisked away to tend to any injuries and to prepare for the upcoming battle. Considering nothing much had happened to him physically in the last battle, he simply sat on the floor and decided to turn his camera on. Looking at screen he smiled at all the pictures he had taken during the tournament matches. ALOT were close calls where he could have gotten severely hurt, but he wanted to make memories. There were some with his teammate Namine- wait...where was she? The blonde had noticed something going on with the memory witch and knew as her friend he would have to ask her later about it. “Prompto Argentum!” Prompto perked his head up when he heard his name called, but it wasn't her; it was the announcers telling him to head to the arena. “How long have i been sitting here?” He grumbled out when he stood. His foot had fallen asleep, but with a few good shakes he was ready to go. Pocketing his camera, Prompto smacked his cheeks and got his game face on. With a cheerful smile, the blonde made his way towards his final match.

As he was in the final hallway, he finally spotted the small blonde girl and gave her a thumbs up. Seeing the small nod that she was okay, he watched as she left towards the battlefield as her name was called once again, before he too went in. Taking his spot, he waved at his opponents. “Hiya it's nice to--Wait..” Prompto’s face paled as he looked at Nil. Did a freaking behemoth just talk?? “I -oh-ehh-” He stuttered out a little confused, but once he saw the soft smile on the creature’s face he calmed down. “Can't judge people because of how they look” He whispered to himself what Namine had said to him earlier. Raising his hand back up he waved happily at them both. “Wish you guys the best of luck! Win or lose we should get some snacks after this! My treat!”

Seeing Beatrix’s expression shift to seriousness, Prompto knew he had to do the same. Holding his hands out to the side, the familiar blue sparkles danced around his hands. Feeling the weight of Valiant and Cocytus plop down into his hands, he quickly put his fingers along the triggers. “Think fast!” he said loudly and aimed Cocytus right at Beatrix. Since he had the advantage of first strike, he wanted to test just how quick her reflexes were. He had grown smatter through these battles and wanted to see just how much trouble him and Namine would be in. “Let’s see what cha guys got!” This match was going to be fun, and win or lose he was going to put his all into it.

I'll spread my wingsand I'll learn how to flyI'll do what it takestill I touch the sky.

Nil couldn't help it as a blush began to rise on his cheeks at the praise Beatrix offered to him. It was something he never really heard back home. Adequate, satisfactory, passable maybe! But never anything close to 'great'! At least he would be able to hold back the tears with a quick sniffle. "Thank you so much! I'd be happy to work with you again sometime too! It's been a blast!" the battle mage took another few deep breaths to center himself as he turned his attention back towards his opponents. He'd need all the focus that he could manage in this. Mistakes would make or break this fight he was sure of it, and so his entire thought process had to be dedicated to the f-

Woah...

Oh gosh, oh jeeze, oh man. Most of that focus went out the window as Nil got a look at Prompto. He's...he's...How would Zidane put it? A babe? The thought process didn't get to last very long however, as the sound of a snap echoing through the arena brought him back down to earth. Okay, okay, don't lose your center, don't get distracted, this is fine! Nil's smile once again returned to his face, replacing the distracted and almost awestruck look that it held for but a moment. Raising his right hand, the behemoth would snap his own fingers in response. There, of course, was nothing special about this aside from the dramatic metal clang it produced. With a flourish of his left hand, Nil would call his Keyblade in a flash of chromatic light. Just in time to since it seemed like Prompto was eager to get started, going on the offensive with a quick shot towards Beatrix. Unsure if he would be quick enough, Nil would at least try to juke between the shot and Beatrix to Block it with his Keyblade.

Alright, so he was a ranged fighter, which still left Namine as a wild card. The behemoth cast a quick glance over the girl. She was cute and unassuming which meant she was probably quite dangerous. But without knowing more than that, rushing in head first probably wouldn't turn out so great. So for now he'd keep his attention turned towards Prompto...not that it would be hard. "Alright...here we go!" Nil would kick a paw of the ground and start sprinting forward taking care to serpentine as he went. He knew live gunfire all too well thanks to his former Master's tests, and running in a straight line was a sure fire way to get hit...then again so was running towards guns anyway, but what can you do?

Skidding on his, Nil would attempt to slip behind the beautiful gunner and slam those thick horns of his into Prompto to try and Heave them up into the air. Should it land, he'd not find himself alone in the air for long as the behemoth would hop up after him with an apologetic grin on his face "Sorry about this! Also I really like your hair!" with a quick few swings of his Keyblade, Nil would attempt to send Prompto back towards the ground with a Pop Drop straight towards Namine!

________________Action 0: Snap!: It's uhh...a snap of his fingers! He can be dramatic too! It doesn't do anything but it sounds kinda neat, using his metal hand and all.

Action 1: Block: Nil, trying to keep his partner safe, steps between Beatrix and Prompto's shot to attempt and block it with his keyblade.

Action 2: Heave: As much as the behemoth would rather not fight the pretty boy, Nil made a promise to not hold back! And as such, rushes towards Prompto to try and launch him up into the air with Heave: Charge at the foe, slamming into them with large pointed horns for Heavy Physical damage before tossing them up into the air. Often opening the opponent up for aerial combos. Can only be performed on the ground.Cooldown: 2 Posts.

Action 3: Pop Drop: Totally not an excuse to give Prompto a private compliment to his hair, Nil tries to follow up Heave and send the gunner careening towards Namine with a Pop Drop: A standard three hit combo with the Keyblade. When executed on the ground the last hit knocks enemies into the air. When executed in the air the last hit knocks enemies down to the ground. Deals Average Physical damage.Cooldown: 1 Post.

It warmed something inside of Namine as the other female combatant talked to her partner. The two of them seemed to have formed a strong bond during this event. Whether there was already a bond between them before all of this, or whether the bond started because of all of this was unclear to the Memory Witch. She didn’t delve into any further. There was no point. It wouldn’t give her team an edge on the other. The only thing that matter was that there was a bond now, and that made them on par with Prompto and herself. It meant that they were just as good at working together as her and the gunslinger. The two teams that stood there now won’t be here if it didn’t mean that they could work toegether. Namine knew that her and Prompto were going to have to up their teamwork to get through this.

Speaking of which, Prompto's stumbling over his words made Namine side look him. Did he know one of them? He seemed pretty shocked. Before she said anything though, the young man had already recovered himself. She was proud of him and gave a smile of approval. He had learned something about how to view or not view others. There were so many wonderful new things and people out there to meet. You just had to be opened minded.

The fight was on. Namine's lingered on Beatrix's sword handle. She was assuming it was a sword of some kind. The hilt was far to big to be a knife or a dagger "Another swordsman." She thought to herself. She had faced off against two before. One being Lightning and the other Gilgamesh.

A snap by the one called Nil made Namine's eyes fall in his direction. "Is he mimicking me?" She wondered as her stance remained as it normally did, not a battle form and not threatening. The flash of light and the appearance of his weapon changed all that. "Of course he is a keyblader." She thought to herself in a "how could I have missed it" kind of way. left leg went back, her right leg bent sightly, and her center of gravity got lower and pulled itself slightly over her right leg. Her eyes narrowed as a more battle ready Namine came out to play. It was clear that she had seen this weapon before and she wasn't messing around when it came to it.

Before Namine could say anything to Prompto about it his shot fired. Just as Namine was accepting the Keyblader rushed out and blocked the bullet. The memory witch kept her eye on him. She was trying to figure out what kind of wielder he was, Dark or light, or maybe even similar to Riku, walking their own path? Was he a master or more like Sora, where it didn't matter? More importantly, what could this wielder do, and what could his keyblade do?

Judging by the glow that enveloped it during it being called forth. Namine could deduce that he was a wielder of the light. She wasn't sure how that information would help her right now, but it did make her feel better. However, not knowing what the keyblade was capable of worried her. She knew she was about to find out.

Nil didn't haste with his next move. He rushed right at the gunslinger. "Brash, like Sora." She thought with amusement. She was starting to wonder if this was a trait of Light Keyblade wielders. Lucky for her, she knew Prompto could be the same way.

Nil's attack was being executed and Namine knew it wasn't wise to just be standing there. So she bolted as Prompto was being lifted in the air. However, she didn't just run right or left. The girl ran in both direction at the same time. Namine had seemingly split herself in two. She went one way, and Data Namine went the other. The two girls ran the perimeter of that battle where Beatrix, Prompto, and Nil were in the middle. It was what she had been setting up for with her snap at the beginning. The snap did nothing itself. It was only meant as a distraction so the others didn't see something fishy about her appearance. Place their focus somewhere else so they didn't see what was happening in front of them. The trick is, which one was really Namine. Misdirection, something Magicians and Artists had in common.

Namine.....or the Namine's, weren't finished yet. Wether the Behemoth attack on her and her Partner, both girl's snapped their fingers again as they ran. This time the snap called forth 3 creatures known as Nobodies, Creepers to be exact, and in flying form. "Looks like he needs a lift." they said in unison. the closest Creeper swooped and attempted to snatch Prompto out of or into the air either rescuing him from a colluison with either Namine and/or the ground, or giving him a new perspective to look from

The Flying Creeper locked legs under Prompto's under arms giving him the ability to still move his arms, and giving him a bird's eye view of the battle. Faith and trust, but not so much the dust in this situation to fly. Unless on counted the dusty arena floor. The other two Creepers flew high above everyones heads and looked like vultures waiting.

Namine kept running until she met with herself 180 degrees from where they once stood. The two girls once again overlapped. She turned her face to watch as much as what was happening as she could. She knew it was going to be impossible to watch everyone all the time, but maybe giving Prompto this advantage would help out.

Creeper Nobodies:Up to 3 Creepers come to my aid per battle. Attack: Hitting enemies by turning themselves into weapons. Are self moving but do more damage when being wieldedDefense: taking the hit for Naminé so no bodily damage is inflicted on her.Note: Can't be out with any other summons from her out.

HP 1 each

Cooldown: Two posts after all have been defeated.

Data Naminé:Like in the Data Twilight Town and Chain of Memories, Naminé can project an image of herself that look real and can interact with people as if it was her. This isn’t another solid being though like a colon or replica. It is purely made of Data and can’t be harmed nor can it harm. Not a summon since it can do anything other than be a deco and stand in for the original.

Strange new worlds

and the war within them.

Their opponents were there and ready. A man, one that someone might consider glamorous, announced his intent to want to get food after the battle, no matter the outcome. It was a noble thought but it truly depended on what condition they were all in afterwards. There was only a brief moment before the new lad decided to take the lead. He pulled forth his weapons, guns by the look of them. Out they came and were pointed at her, rifling off a quick shot right at her. Her hand flew to her handle but no matter what, she was getting hit. Except she wasn't: Nil rushed over and summoned forth his keyblade to defend her. She glanced at him and nodded in thanks before she withdrew her weapon.

The girl, a short lithe blond teenager, brought forth... a trio of odd creatures. She couldn't place them at all and they moved strangely, like they had no bones. As Nil engaged the man, Beatrix snapped around him and charged. Her blade swung low and swiped at the closest Nobody, attempting to rend it in half with her blade. She slammed her heel into the ground and leapt back at the other, digging in deep to increase her speed. She swiped in a diagonal slash at the other Nobody. Then her hand snapped out at the girl... oh look. Now there are two of them.

No matter. She expanded her magic to muffle her mind, cloud over her thoughts and keep her ability to use spells minute.1. Slash at Nobody2. Slash at other Nobody.3. Silence at Namine.

Post by Prompto Argentum on Feb 5, 2019 14:15:50 GMT -5

Prompto had expected as much for his first shot to be blocked, but was slightly surprised that Nil was the one to block it. Wait...that weapon, why did it look so similar to the one that Roxas used in the fruits ball event? Were there other people out there that had those weird key shaped weapons?Who even uses a key to hit people???‘Okay they both are pretty fast and they are looking out for one another’ he thought to himself. At least now he knew what exact speed he was dealing with.So when Nil started to zig zag towards him in a rather rushed manner causing it to be hard to shoot at him, Prompto knew he was dealing with extremely skilled fighters. Not to say that his previous opponents aren't capable of fighting him, but these two at least understood his weapon; and that was going to make it difficult for the blondes. Prompto knew he was going to be hit once Nil had made contact with him, but that didn't stop him from trying to hit the behemoth. “This is gonna hurt!” Prompto yelped out when Nil was finally in his face and as he turned, he saw the horns coming right at him. OH YEAH GONNA HURT BAD.

Feeling himself be lifted up in the air, from the rather painful strike, Prompto winced. “Sh--that hurt pretty good!” expecting to be hit with a follow up, only because back on his world Large Behemoths always finished off with another strike, He was rather surprised when he felt a Creeper slither around his body and keep him floating in the air and out of harm's way. Opening his eyes all the way and looking at the grey creature, he flashed it a smile. “Thanks Namine!” He called down to her, watching the battle field. Wow...it actually looked kinda cool up here, you know all things considered especially since he didn't quite like heights. If these two opponents were going to be quick, he was going to react just as fast.

As the creeper held him in the air, and Nil was heading back to the ground, Prompto shot off his Scintilla blast to counter attack and hopefully stun the man. Once that was out of the way, Prompto felt the sore ache in his body and made his hand start to glow. “Didn't expect to have to heal myself so early on!” He mumbled and pressed his glowing hand against his wounds. The forming bruises instead of being dark purple and red, were now just a faint color on his freckled skin. “Much better!” He chuckled out, but now was no time to be excited. Watching the battle field, Prompto saw that Beatrix was on the move and rather quickly trying to dispose of Namine’s defenses. With him in the air, what all was there he could do? That was an idea clicked in his head.

“I got it! Hey creeper thingie!” He called out to it. The nobody turned its pale head towards him and cocked its head to the side. “Awe sweet! You can understand me! Hey! Take me to the ground and quick!” Grateful that the creature understood his commands, the blonde soon saw himself approach the earth. Once Promptos feet were on the ground, he made a brash decision.

“Please don't be too mad dude!” With the creeper about to fly off into the air to join its comrades to defend against Beatrix’s blows, Prompto grabbed a hold of the flying nobodies feet and started to swing it around.The way Beatrix was acting after her strikes could only mean one thing, She was trying to silence Namine. Through the years of battle on Eos, he was quite familiar with the spell considering there were a few Daemons that had struck Noct with it and stopped him from being able to use his magic temporarily. Prompto knew that Namine, wouldn't have time to escape that attack and if she was hit with it? Oh man, he didn't want to think about the amount of trouble they would be in. After a few rotations, the blonde launched it towards the girl and yelled out to her. “Hey look out!” He yelled her way, hoping she understood what exactly he was doing. He didn't quite care in that moment if either Namine or the creeper would be upset with him, It was more important to try and stop the spell. After a few seconds of stumbling, Prompto regained his composure and smirked. "Oh man...that made me dizzy..." He grumbled out and shook his head.

I'll spread my wingsand I'll learn how to flyI'll do what it takestill I touch the sky.

Dang! Okay that wasn't what Nil was expecting. What the heck were those things? And why were there two Namines now? Was the behemoth going to have to learn to not blink? Nil landed back on the ground with a small thump and looked back up towards Prompto still in the air...just in time to see a blast fired right at him! "Yipe!" the battlemage flung up his free arm to try and block the shot. The sound of it hitting that metal limb was far from pleasant, but worse was the feeling of your entire arm vibrating all the way up your spine! "Aaaaugh, ooof augh, okay, that was a bad idea!" Nil hopped in place and shook his arm to try and get that feeling to stop. Given normal circumstances, even Nil might have found this predicament funny, but in the fight it only meant that his opponents would have that much more time to capitalized.

It took a moment for the vibrations to finally abate and give Nil a chance to regroup and think. And regroup is just what he would have to do. With one more shake of his arm, Nil would fall back to Beatrix's side as she finished her assault towards Namine. That stunning blow was just a minor setback, something like that wasn't going to cost them the match...right? It did put the behemoth on the back paw for the time being though, but he'd not stay there for long if he could help it. But first he'd have to stop and think. He had learned that pulling out the stops early on could give their opponents more time to prepare, if that barrier of Crowe's was any indication. And without knowing what Prompto or Namine were truly capable of yet, he couldn't chance putting Beatrix or himself at risk. Keep it simple for now. Chill out now, heat things up later!

With a twirl to his keyblade, the dripping ink across the weapon's tip would shift to a chilly blue colour. "Okay, those are some neat tricks. But how about this?" slinging the magical paint in the air, chunks of ice formed as Nil sent out a Wave of Mutilation towards Namine...er... The Namines, rather. As those sat out towards their target, Nil would ready another spell, the ice forming in the palm of his paw this time before a Blizzard would fire its way off towards Prompto.

________________Action 1: [Stunned!]: Prompto's shot packed enough punch even when hitting that metal arm of Nil's to keep the behemoth shaken for a brief moment. But boy is that ringing in the ears going to linger for a while longer, yowza.

Action 2: Wave of Mutilation: Nil doesn't like being kept on the back paw for long! So after regrouping with his partner, decides to shift his assault towards Namine and fires of a Wave of Mutilation: Channel magical energies into the keyblade before slashing towards an enemy twice releasing waves of homing magic attacks. This ability acts as a form of Double Cast, allowing two of the same spell, or two different spells to be launched in quick succession. The cooldown of this attack is always 1 less than that of the spell used, but no less than 1 Post. Extremely powerful magics such as Ecliptic Meteor or beneficial magics such as Protect or Shell cannot be channeled in this way.Magic Used: Blizzard: Average Ice-Elemental Magic damage. x2Uses: 1/2 Uses RemainingCooldown: 1 Post

Action 3: Blizzard: And rather than bust out the big guns right away, the battlemage decides to slow his roll and chill out a bit.

Namine nearly busted out laughing at Nil's display as he tried take control of his arms after Prompto's shot. It wasn't his pain that she found fun, but it was his actions. This guy was literal a big hairy version of Sora. "They would get along great." The Nobody thought to herself with a smile, thought, she didn't know why she didn't notice that the keyblader a metal arm.

While lost in thought about Nil's arm, Namine barely noticed one of her Nobody's been taken out by Beatrix. Namine would have missed it completely if it wasn't for the fact that data Namine had her eyes Beatrix. the two girl's heads were blurred looking off into different directions as they over lapped one another. The Poor soul had flown to close to the swordswomen and was taking out with a single strike. It didn't seem to have enough sense to switch it's form to something more durable.

Namine was brought back to her senses when he heard prompto yell to look out. When the Nobody had returned to the present, she saw her own Creeper being flung in her direction. The creeper slammed into her just as a spell was being fired at her from Beatrix. The Creeper had knocked Namine to the one side and she came crashing down to the floor. However, The other Namine still stayed put.

The creeper stayed in a sitting position for a moment being in an Unharmonious overlapping with Data Namine. It was clearly very dizzy, and because of the world that they were on, it showed. Little birds and stars danced in circles around the creeper's head. A huge limp appeared on it's gray noggin. It managed to pull itself back up and dust itself off with it's wings. it turned its point nose in Prompto's direction and folded it's wings over it's chest, tapping what looked like a foot as it mimicked the emotion of Annoyance.

Namine, that had been knocked over during the current events, looked around to see what had happened. She knew a spell was fired at her and that Prompto had spared her from it by using one of her creatures. The artist looked over at the creeper and her data self. The creeper was currently shooing away data Namine. Namine figured it was because the projection was messing with its vision being overlapped with it. That isn't what bothered her. What bothered her was....Why hadn't the creeper disappeared on impact with the spell? It wasn't in a defensive or stronger state.

Namine stood back up and she soon got her answer. The Creeper took its wings and pulled them behind its back. The creature then pulled its wings in front of itself and looked at each wing confused. Both Namine's tiled their head at the creature. The creeper then tried to place it's wings directly above its head. Namine and Namine's eyes got wide. "You can't transform." they said flabbergast. It then occurred to her that that is why it didn't disappear when it was hit. The spell wasn't meant to cause pain, It was a silence spell. The creeper couldn't use magic to transform now.

The Creeper took off back to the sky seeming to realize this very same thing. It was stuck in flying form whether it liked it or not. Namine was thankful for Prompto's quick thinking in that moment. If the spell had hit her....She looked up at the creepers in the sky and shuttered at the thought of what might have happened. It is true that it would have hindered her team, but it was nothing they couldn't work through if it was just them. However, there was more at steak if she was silenced while other Nobodies were on the field. She was going to have to be careful.

Namine saw the Keyblader start to wield his blade. Her eyes narrowed again and both her Data Namine ran at each other, Intersected then took off to the left and right of Beatrix and Nil. The keyblader's spell was cast and ice honed in on one of the girls. It was chasing her down, but was it chasing down the right girl?

Regardless, there was no escape. it was either going to hit the real Namine and knock the wind out of her. It also leaving an ice chill throughout her body along with a sharp pain that felt like hundreds of needles where it hit, or it would hit data Namine and simply go right through her, only to impact with the ground.

Either way, Namine was done playing dodge ball. She had seen something earlier that might play to her team's advantage. She knew that they only begun to see what the other two could do. It was time to fight fire with fire. It was time to try to get them to reveal the strength within their hearts.

The two girls stood side by side on the opposite end of their opponents, and data Namine disappeared without a trace. Namine ripped a page from her sketchbook and as she did so her features once again began to change as they did in previous fights. Once again, the Witch of Memory would call upon a heart within Sora's heart and memories.

The page Namine held began to elongate and started to glow and spark as she held of to her side and ran towards Nil. Namine's appearance started to change. Unlike last time, Instead of her hair simple fading into a brighter color, It became shorter and darker, At least for those who could see it. To many on lookers, however, they wouldn't not see her hair became darker and shorter. Instead, to them, Namine's face would have become obscured in a black hood.

Data Naminé:Like in the Data Twilight Town and Chain of Memories, Naminé can project an image of herself that look real and can interact with people as if it was her. This isn’t another solid being though like a colon or replica. It is purely made of Data and can’t be harmed nor can it harm. Not a summon since it can do anything other than be a deco and stand in for the original.

That...worked out extremely well. Prompto had never attempted something like that before and in fact, he wasn't even quite sure how he was able to swing the creeper around like that; It just felt like the right thing at the time. Watching as the Creeper collided with one of the Namine’s and effectively save her from the magical attack, The blonde didn't hesitate to smile sheepishly at it. “Sorry, but i had to save your mom!” he chuckled out as the creeper finally regained it’s composure and gave him a very judging look. The way the creeper tapped its foot against the ground and crossed its arms at Prompto was just like when Ignis did it when Noct and himself got in trouble when they were younger for doing something stupid. Guaranteed that both of these instances were well deserved, Prompto still let out a nervous laugh. Man today was turning out to be something special!

Knowing that Namine was okay for the moment and not in the red, The blonde made sure his eyes never left either of his opponents. Knowing that Nil was very similar to Noct when it came to magic gave him an advantage..but wait, a metal arm? He hadn't been paying that much attention to the behemoth’s appearance until Prompto had heard the yelp and the sequential ringing of his bullets vibrating off of it.Even though it wasn't a fleshy appendage, watching Nil shake along with his arm still made Prompto feel slightly bad. It reminded him ALOT of a certain ex -commanding officer for the Nifilheim army, but Nil didn't quite seem to be as much of a stick in the mud as Ravus was. Knowing this information made another idea click in Prompto’s head. “Alright here I come! Time for the show!!” He announced to the field and aimed his gun Cocytus towards Beatrix and Nil. It worked out perfectly that Nil had decided to take his stance next to Beatrix so when he swept his gun across his chest in a arching motion to use Ballistic, Prompto knew that it would hit at least one of them with a few bullets and cause one of be flinched. Quickly releasing the barrage of bullets towards the two in the crescent moon shape, Prompto smirked; he wasn't done just yet. As the hail of bullets went off towards the behemoth and the warrior, the blonde lifted his other hand up and met the arch about half way through with his other gun to make a T shaped cross. Using Valiant under his other arm, prompto aimed this shot right at Nil. Using a piercing bullet in combination with the magical properties of Valiant’s bullets, Something good was bound to happen with both of these strikes. With any luck , he could deal some major damage, but he would have to wait a few seconds in between each of his shots to see if his aim was true.If that wasn't enough for his opponents for right now, what he was going to do next would surely show them the capabilities of both his friendship and teamwork with Namine.

Turning to the now cloaked Namine, Prompto frowned. He was all too well adjusted to her transformations, but something about this one stuck. She was wearing one of those black robes like Xigbar had worn. Was this in correlation to what made Namine freak out by the sharpshooter before? Were they all part of the same troupe? Prompto would have to ask her even more questions later because right now they had to fight. “Let’s do this Namine!” rushing forwards to initiate their group attack, Prompto ran along next to the cloaked girl to give her the opportunity to add to the combo with whatever abilities this form had. Blasting out some basic rounds he started the chain to what would be an amazing strike! The air around them started to sparkle slightly to indicate to the girl that now was the time to strike together. “Let’s show them what happens when you mess with us!” He said with his signature smirk. I sure have grown!

I'll spread my wingsand I'll learn how to flyI'll do what it takestill I touch the sky.

Alright, things seemed to be swinging out of their favour a bit, but that was okay. Fights seemed to be a lot like dances, sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow? Was that a good analogy for this? Maybe not, but it made the 'on the back paw' thoughts make a lot more sense, so there was that. But maybe things would swing back for them before long! Nil watched his ice zipping around and honing in what was hopefully the right Namine! And when they impacted on the girl and one of them disappeared, the Behemoth couldn't help but to breath a sigh of relief. He knew they weren't out of the woods yet though, so his grip upon his keyblade never weakened. So Namine could summon things and Prompto had fancy guns that REALLY packed a punch. He would shake his arm even thinking about that shaking and ringing that had been going on just a moment ago. But there was still a lot that neither he or Beatrix had got to see yet...They wouldn't have to wait too long though as Namine ripped a page from her book and began to change...and charge!

Now before, most everyone had charged toward Beatrix because she was clearly the bigger threat between the two of them right? Right! So one could only imagine the battle-mage's surprise when he realized Namine was rushing to engage him instead! Nil was literally on the back paw now, stumbling and backpedaling away from whatever Namine was trying to pull. "W-woah, okay, I'm sorry your tricks are kinda cooler!" his defensive scuttling thankfully put him just out of range as Prompto's spray of bullets reigned down. With his focus split already he couldn't see if Beatrix managed to get away in time. He was sure she was alright though! She was made of way tougher stuff than he was after all! Nil would bring up his keyblade to try and block whatever Namine's next attack was going to be. Oh how he hoped it wouldn't be magic. Please don't let it be magic. Magic always hurt a lot worse...Speaking of hurting however, Nil would yelp in pain and stumble backwards as Prompto's Piercer struck into his shoulder, just barely missing his magitech arm. "Ack! Ow! Alright a lot cooler, a lot cooler!" this was not good! What was he supposed to do when he was getting double teamed like this? Well he was supposed to keep calm and stay focused right? Think harder and whine less as he heard time and time again back home. There's still a lot of fight left in him, and a little bit of panic and bullets weren't going to stop him! Yet.

Taking his chances as Prompto drew closer to Namine. "I'm not out of this yet, back off!" the behemoth threw up his right hand, glowing with vibrant white magic a series of brilliant orbs would launch out towards Namine, spiraling around her rapidly before they would try and crash into the now robed girl, exploding with a burst of Holy!

________________Action 1: Dodge: Taken by surprise by Namine charging at him, and not Beatrix, the behemoth backpedals to try to get away. Or perhaps better engage? Whatever the case may be, it has Prompto's Ballistic barely miss the mage!

Action 2: Block: On the defensive now, Nil raises up his keyblade to try and block whatever Namine's attack will be and hopes for the best.

Action 3: Holy: Not wanting to stay on that back paw for long, Nil ups his game and his magic to throw a curve ball at Namine in the form of Holy: Glowing orbs of white, pearlescent energy spiral around a target before crashing into them, creating a larger orb which explodes into a burst of heavy Light-Elemental Magic damage.Cooldown: 3 Posts.
